It ships today in the US I believe, and will probably be in stores tommorow. Looks like an excellent game from what i've seen, im even taking a break from rs to play it.

Release dates countdown timer and info here^

 

 

 

So has anyone pre ordered it? Think it will be better then super mario sunshine which I hear it getting compared to a lot? Don't care about the game and can't wait to get your pre order coin thing? Want to run down to your local game store and demand they give it to you now or you'll get really mad? Discuss!

 

 

 

Edit: I'm pretty sure it ships today and is released tommorow, but i'm not 100%.

I played the full version copy that walmart had the other day. It was interesting to say the least.

 

I plan on buying it at some point, but it's not the top of my list. It's about as standard as any other mario game that's come out recently.

I hope it's not just some "play for a week, beat it then get bored and never play again" game like some where. If it's anything like sunshine was then i'm happy. Oh so happy.

Oh yeah, I enjoyed sunshine, and I'm sure I'm going to enjoy galaxy as well, but I do think it will be a "play a week, beat it and shelf it" game, excluding the completing it perfectly part. It doesn't seem to have a lot of replayability.

 

 

 

The gravity rules are fun. I don't know what it's called in game, but I was using the vortex stars to slingshot me to random places. Lots of fun :P

The sad thing is that most games are like that nowadays, the only way you can add to a games lifespan is through online which you can't really put in platformers and some games. I still think Galaxy looks awesome though, it could well be one of those, I wanna complete it 20 times, kind of games like Resident Evil 4.

From the reviews I've heard its supposed to be the best mario since 64.

Same here, I've heard it being called the true sequel to Mario 64.

Yeah it hasn't gotten a review below 90% yet and the second lowest score is 95%, even Gamespot gave it 9.5 and they seem to hate the Wii. It's going to be pretty damn awesome.

Have mine pre-ordered for UK release (16th Nov.) so I can't wait :)

Heh Ima so get the game. I enjoyed sunshine, played it for ages, never got boring. I'm sure galaxy won't dissapoint.

Meh, I bought Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn yesterday, so if I get this any time soon it'll be for my brother's birthday on Thursday. Looks awesome though.

 

 

 

Off-topic: FE is the hardest frikkin game I've played in a long time. Including the other 3 FE games.

 

 

 

I love it.

Wow I was going to do a review for this on my site but I would get flamed.

 

 

 

It is hevily overated sure it has some cool features but god damn it not that good.

 

 

 

Then again I hated 64 and Sunshine....just...............TERRIBLE!

The game looks fantastic. Waiting until Christmas day to get it though, if I didn't have mock exams later this month then I'd get the game as soon as possible.

According to the reviews, it's an excellent game, but has two weaknesses: camera angles, and a short life span. 10 hours to complete the storyline, and around 20 hours to collect absolutely everything and finish the game. That's a bummer. But you can start it over every once in a while.

I'm willing to bet ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâã500 you've never even played the game.

Yeah, OK mate. I don't even need to ask what the people here at tip.it would think over the matter.

Have mine pre-ordered for UK release (16th Nov.) so I can't wait :)

 

 

 

Same here, I think this game will be one of the best Wii selling games this year.

Erm Bubsa it's my opinion and I have the right to have one so shut up.

And anyone has the right to ridicule it when it has no basis more reliable than your own imagined experience.

On Tuesday toys r us is having a special where you buy the game before 5pm you get a $25 gift certificate. Not a bad deal. I'm definitely going to get this game though, it's got amazing reviews. A no brainer must buy.

I ordered it a while ago, I get it tomorrow. I'll drop a commet here on what i think of it.

Same here. I'll try to post something too if I can pull myself away from it.

 

 

 

Edit: Going to get mine now =]

I got it today and was playing it for the past 5 hours and all I can say is that I like Mario on pure ground the best. It's still a good game but i'm used to 64/sunshine still. The feeling of gravity is weird to me. I'll just have to play a bit more :P.

So far, so amazing. I won't go as far as to say that I like it better than 64 yet, but definitely better than Sunshine (though I really liked Sunshine too). It does seem to be a bit of an un-natural feeling, having to run around a small planet, and having the camera everywhere as you're doing it, but there's no doubt it adds to the great gameplay. Overall verdict so far: 9/10.
